Re: OT: US Army question
 

I screwed up again Bill, he fired 105mm howitzers for the 90th infantry
division.

From what I've been able to dig up on Regimental Combat Teams they were
regiments that operated independently of any division. One of the RCT's in
Korea started out attached to one division but was later attached to another
division (I think it was the First Cav.). Are there any good newsgroups for US
military history?
